Episode 62: Lessons from the Edge: Ukraine in Crisis with Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch

Ambassador Marie “Masha” Yovanovitch has a stark but hopeful story to tell of the dedication of foreign service officers and her own career. As Ambassador to Ukraine, her endeavors to encourage democracy, support anti-corruption efforts, and advance U.S. interests and values in Ukraine no doubt left a lasting impression that continues to inform the policies of a country now under direct military attack. On April 26, 2023, she sat down with CCWA President and Ambassador-in-Residence, Heather Hodges for a special luncheon Foreign Policy Forum. Please note that this episode will only be available for a limited time, per the Ambassador's request. It will be removed on June 30, 2023.
